Okay, this cigar was nicely constructed, with a nice box press on it. Toro size, 6x50.
Draw: Couldn't really get a flavor from the prelight draw, but the draw itself was perfect.
Burn: It lit well, but had several burn problems throughout and required some touchups.
Flavor: This is definitely a full strength cigar. I could feel it after a couple of puffs. I was glad that I was sitting down. However the flavor was a little harsh. Maybe it was just too spicy for me. I don't know, but I didn't like it.
General: About a third of the way in, it almost went out, and tasted really bad for a while. It recovered for a while, but a little over halfway through it started to not give off a lot of smoke and I pitched it because I wasn't really enjoying it anyway. Also, for those that care, the first ash fell off after about a half inch.
Overall: I was disappointed by this cigar. I don't know if it was too strong or spicy for me, or what. I would have to give this cigar a rating of about 6.5
